Mother was the Doctor.

In another way, son's mum is a doctor, so father can be anyone

Teanchi and Beanchi are a married couple (dont ask me who he is and who she is)!
They have two kids, one of them is a girl. Assume safely that the probability of each gender is 1/2.

What is the probability that the other kid is also a girl?


Hint: It is not 1/2 as you would first think.

The following are possible combinations of two children
Girl - Girl
Girl - Boy
Boy - Girl
Boy - Boy
but as here given 1 of them is girl so drop the boy boy combination.
This leaves only three possibilities. 1/3

1/4

Aiyoo macha it's the same as my answer ne. Since we know one of the toss is a tail, then we will drop the head-head possibility from the sample space. That leaves only three possibilities, one of which is two tails. Hence the probability is 1/3.

My bad. yeah, you're right

My bad. yeah, you're right

But you may be correct. some how it's may be same like the monti hall question. if you drop one of probabilities, nothing happen to your previous probability if you not switch. A single coin toss is 50/50. But two consecutive tosses is 50/50 for the first, and 25/75 for the second. Taken as a set. There is 1/4 chance you were right before since we know one of the toss is a tail, so may be your initial probability being correct was 1/4, your final chance of being correct was probably 1/4. But the problem is question begin after the first flip with the result which is tail. Therefore we cannot consider head-head probability. So the answer is I think 1/3.

I'd light the match first so I can light the candle, then use the candle to light everything else, If needed.

Ask questions which cannot be googled.

Take 9 from 6, 10 from 9, 50 from 40 and leave 6.

How Come ??

ඕක කරන්න බැරි කේස් එකක් නෙ බං, ,, ඔහොම බෙදන්න බැරිනිසා. . . අන්තිමට අල්ලපු ගෙදර පොර ආවලු උදව් කරන්න ,,,

පොර දුන්නලු උගේ අශ්වයෙක් ආ,, මුත් දාලා බෙදා ගනින් කියාල.. .

දැන් 17 + 1 = 18

ලොකු එකාට දුන්නලු 18 / 2 , 9ක්... වැඩේ හරි. .

මැද එකාට 18 / 3 , 6 ක්, ඌත් හරි . .

ඊලග එකාට 18 / 9 , 2 ක්,,,දැන් වැඩේ හරි, ,


කට්ටියටම බෙදලා දුන්න අශ්වයො ගාන. .
9 + 6 + 2 = 17

18 -17 = 1

ඉතිරි 1යි , අල්ලපු ගෙදර පොඩ ඌ ගෙනාපු අශ්වයත් අරගෙන ගෙදර ගියාලු .. ඔන්න ඕකයි කතාව. .

Good post bro!

It is possible

Q2. A doctor’s son’s father was not a doctor. How is this possible?

Because Doctor is the mother ..

 

[bid87]

Question ...

Here we go again ...

Some what complex question ..
So feel free to ask any questions..





There were 3 girls, each with their fathers and all six are walking forward.

They come to a small river.

There was one boat, able to carry 2 at a time.

Crossing would be simple, except for the girls, no one is willing to be in the boat or ashore with other 2 men other than her own father.

How do they cross the river ?
